Wondering if anyone wants a buddy?
I'm ttc #2 (DD 13m)
Just finishing AF and embarking on cycle 2

Come shove 2 fingers to the back of the witch and let's count down to O and POAS psychotically in a few weeks...

I'm going all out this month with SMEP, pressed, EPO, OPKs....

Mimilicious013 · 28/02/2016 14:21

Kkk k u just made my day.I probably would be doing the same. I just don't have any tests in the house. Haha

I'm sure if u r pregnant it becomes a lot of white ceamy cm.for the 1st time have decided to write down all my symptoms after ov .hope we are lucky this cycle.

DrMum83 · 29/02/2016 16:29

How are things?
I woke up really early this morning, felt so hot. Felt really sick and vomited x5... ! I feel drained. Think it's a bug but can't help but wonder although I know I'm really too early for morning sickness

Mimilicious013 · 01/03/2016 04:55

hope u are feeling better today and that it is early symptoms fxSmile

I was feeling rather low yesterday cause started feeling all the pre-af signs. I know it's on its way today or tomorrow. Gutted!!!

Any plans on poas today? GL dear

DrMum83 · 01/03/2016 20:35

Hey
Well my DH started vomiting last night so obviously my sickness was a bug Sad

I'm still here (having massive log on issues so can only log on from my desktop, and have been away from home...)

How's everyone getting on?

I'm 100% out - haven't had sex all month (if there's ever a sure fire way to not get pregnant... haha) A mixture of being away for just over a week and a half, and having some catastrophic fights before I left, the stress of the home improvements we're having done has got to us!! Also DC1 hasn't been sleeping so one of us has been on the sofa most nights so the other one doesn't get woken my the baby monitor. Due on in about a week so no chance now.

I would have made more effort to force the matter but I really would prefer a 2017 baby so have just let it ride out and will start being more active with the trying in the next couple of months.

Did do some OPKs whilst away and it's really weird, I used to ov really early in my cycle just after my period but this time it was quite a lot later, about 8 or 9 days after AF finished. Wonder if having a baby changes your cycle? Haven't used OPKs since having DC1. Also wonder if it means my cycles will be longer, always used to be about 24 days so maybe if I ov on day 15ish then I'll be back to a 28 day cycle like I had when i was younger? bodies are weird aren't they!

Has anyone got any news? symptoms? fill me in on the gossip!

Mimilicious013 · 02/03/2016 10:02

Morning ladies.
I have news but terrible news.af got me so cd1 all over again. How frustratingSad

Hello oh u surely were mia.hope u have better luck with dtd next month haha.my last cycle was awful too. Very little action kkk

Hope u and dh are on the mend. A day or two to poas now drmum

DrMum83 · 02/03/2016 13:34

Hey ohno - sorry you didn't get to dtd this month but sounds like you've had a lot of stress on... I defo think having a baby interferes with cycle, I'm still breastfeeding (twice per day) and have noticed changes.

mimi sorry the bitch got you Sad its just so shit isn't it?
I definitely think AF on it's way, had cramps and checked my cervix and noted a tiny speck of brown on my finger. Pissed right off today now. What's worrying me is that my luteal phase is so short so thinking, with spotting, its likely my progesterone is low because I'm still breastfeeding. I know its only cycle 2 and I'm being a dick, but really pissed off today.
Onwards and upwards I guess, sorry to moan

Ok I'm mental.
I just did a pregnancy test - tesco blue dye (bought the wrong one, hate blue dyes) and within 2 minutes, got this...
What's your thoughts? Not getting hopes up!

I can see something drmum. Faint but it's there. Heee her.congrats dearFlowers

DrMum83 · 02/03/2016 19:41

Omg. I'm such a dumb ass. Just realised I peed on the stick but didn't put the stick in the digital reader 😟 hence that was a false positive. I'm seriously not an idiot but bought it I a rush and didn't read the instructions... I've done it properly and bfn.
Why do I do this to myself?!

OP posts:
Mimilicious013 · 03/03/2016 11:10

Oooh hun (hugs) I can feel your frustration. Anyways we still hopeful cause no af so fx the bfp will come eventually.

How is it possible though to get two lines if it is not positive.I'm hopeful that its just a little early but the bfp is around the corner. Fx

DrMum83 · 03/03/2016 13:14

Thanks Mimi. Hope you're ok and feeling positive about this cycle.
I think I'm out- having v light brown spotting and frer neg.
Bit worried as spotting 9dpo...? Worried I've got a luteal phase defect - might be cos I'm still breastfeeding I guess...

OP posts:
ohnonotanother1 · 03/03/2016 14:23

I had spotting from earlier than 9dpo when I was pregnant! In fact I was so fed up of spotting every month for about 3-4 days before AF and that particular month it started so early I booked a Dr appt, happened to do a test that morning and it was v v faint, and the Dr did a blood test to rule it out. Instead it confirmed it!

So don't give up hope yet!

DrMum83 · 03/03/2016 16:44

ohno thanks for being positive! Do you remember what your spotting was like? I had the same last month which obv became af but never had it before ttc... Weird! Tmi alert - mine's brown, mucousy, tiny weeny bit on wiping only.

How are things with you? Are you getting a bit more sleep now?

Mimilicious013 · 04/03/2016 08:25

Where are you guys in your cycles now? The tww seems agggeeess away!

DrMum83 · 05/03/2016 19:12

Hey!
Well..... Af due today (11dpo) and still just mild brown spotting...
Both a frer and CB have shown faint pos lines within time limit. Theyre squinters, but DH agrees a faint line...
I'm still feeling I'm out. Have got a frer for fmu tomorrow. I just can't get excited, been a roller coaster week!
How are you girls?

Sorry was mia. It's nice to come back to some good news. How exciting. Post pic when u poas today. Smilecongrats hun. Yay!!

ohnonotanother1 · 07/03/2016 10:34

Any news today DrMum?

I may be mistaken but I thought that generally you get AF 14 days after ov, so if you're 11dpo you're not actually due on yet? Had a quick skim through the posts but couldn't see exactly what OPKs you're using but I vaguely remember you saying cheap amazon ones? So don't forget they give you an idea when you get the hormone surge but you might not actually ov until a couple of days later. Add 14 days onto that and you're still testing very very early.

My spotting was just like pre AF spotting, brown/pal pink when wiping only, couple of times a day. It stopped by the time AF was due. Also had AF type cramps and generally felt like I was about to come on any minute. So my bets are that you just ov'd a bit late, which means you're testing a bit too early to get a strong line, but that a good fat line will appear in the next days.

How's everyone else?

No news here. I must be due on this week I think, I'm really out of touch this month because I know there's nothing to look out for...

DrMum83 · 07/03/2016 17:35

Hey, thanks mimi, are you gearing up for lots of sex soon!
ohno. - thanks, hope the witch comes soon so you can crack on.. Am I right in thinking you didn't get to dtd this month?

So... I'm pregnant.. Clearblue attached. I ovulated I think on day 17 and my period was due on Saturday... Still vv early days but v pleased!
